Topic: colloidal silver
I have a depressed immune system resulting from a bout with hepatitis 30+ years ago. Since that time, I have been the victim of "every bug in the jungle" and I must be careful about being exposed. About 5 years ago, I became aware of colloidal silver. I purchased a generator for $75 and have been using it regularly since then. I've never experienced any negative effects from using it, and I can count the times I've been ill on one hand. According to the "government" (henceforth referred to as 'uncle john') I cannot make any claims for the efficacy of CS regarding health issues. But in these days of superbugs and uncontrollable disease, I would be morally remiss if I failed to inform others who may be in great need of alternative help. The late Dr. Bob Beck has a website (URL available if desired) which provides the device design; the generator can be built for less than $25. I use .9999 pure silver wire (actually 'food grade' silver) which will cost approximately $15 for many years' worth. Once you have the generator complete, distilled water and replacement batteries are the only expenses. I think CS is amazing. I use it for everything from health maintenance to disinfectant. It's unsurpassed as a mouth rinse. Essentially it kills more than 650 disease-causing pathogens; virus, bacteria & fungus all succumb to the mighty silver! It was tested on a 'cousin' of anthrax and was effective. Restrictions prevented testing on actual anthrax, but the supposition is that it would be effective! CS does not produce resistant strains as antibiotics do. A few drops in a gallon of dubious water will destroy most harmful bacteria in about 6 minutes. Actually CS, or versions thereof, were used before the advent of antibiotics (which at the time were cheaper, but aren't now). When settlers came west, silver coins were placed in the milk containers to retard spoilage. The reason many aristocrats survived plagues was because they used silver utensils. I believe that the last line of defense against bio-intruders is Colloidal Silver. As an aside, it has also been shown to dissolve implants (and I'm not referring to hip replacements). I have a story to share on that at a future date. I just remembered why I posted this after visiting lyra's acid/alkaline food link. CS does one other cool thing. It generally reduces acidity and raises alkaline levels in the body.
